Key Features

Audio Continuation

• Continue Existing Audio: Extend audio files seamlessly
• Melody Conditioning: Use audio as melodic reference without continuation
• Precise Control: Specify exact start/end points for continuation

Advanced Sampling

• Temperature: Control randomness and creativity
• Top-k/Top-p: Fine-tune token selection for quality vs diversity
• Classifier-Free Guidance: Balance prompt adherence vs creative freedom
• Seed Control: Reproducible results for consistent output
